Essentials Modular wallpaper by Arte: geometry with a woven surface

The Essentials Modular wallpaper by Arte builds every wall from repeated units: planes, squares and hexagons that together form a continuous geometric pattern. What binds the designs is the surface. Up close you see a texture that resembles woven fabric, making even a strict grid look soft. Within that shared foundation, the designs vary considerably. One pattern stays tone-on-tone and calm, while another sets dark blue-grey in sharp contrast against sand. This lets you decide, room by room, how much the pattern should stand out, from backdrop to focal point.

Patterns in the Essentials Modular wallpaper collection

Furrow wallpaper is a patchwork of planes full of short, parallel lines whose direction changes from plane to plane: horizontal, vertical or diagonal. Cream on greige: calm in colour, yet lively thanks to all those directions. Module wallpaper works on a large scale with a grid of slightly skewed squares, each filled with arcs, L-shapes and blocks in dark blue-grey against sand and beige. This is the design that commands the wall. Flourish wallpaper opts instead for a small, dense repeat of interlocking hexagons with labyrinthine lines, light on a mauve-pink background. Additionally, Wind wallpaper, Mazed wallpaper and Sweep wallpaper belong to the Arte series. These three designs approach geometry in a modernist way, and Mazed is available in four colours.

Combining Essentials Modular wallpaper in your interior

In the lifestyle images you can see how the Arte wallpaper responds to what is placed in front of it. Furrow is offset by a dark, glossy console table, an orange terracotta head and black-framed artwork. Module pairs with grey bucket chairs on black sled bases and a canvas that transitions from white-grey to ochre. Flourish is combined with dark blue-grey armchairs, marble and a grey high-pile rug. Dark furniture and black metal keep the patterns in balance throughout.
